  • Cathriona White: Jim Carrey Serves as Pallbearer at Her Funeral in Ireland

    Cathriona White, former girlfriend of actor Jim Carrey, was laid to rest in a funeral in Ireland on Saturday. Carrey served as one of several pallbearers, helping to carry the casket carrying Cathriona White into the Cappawhite Cemetery, where she was laid to rest beside her late father.

    It was back on September 28 that Cathriona White was found dead in Sherman Oaks, California, as a result of a suspected suicide. She was found with several notes and several bottles of pills, including Ambien, Percocet, Zofran, and Propranolol.

    Jim Carrey issued a statement about the passing of his on-and-off girlfriend via his publicist.

    “I am shocked and deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona. She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her. We have all been hit with a lightning bolt.”

    Following Cathriona White’s funeral, Jim Carrey shared a Tweet that included a silhouette of him with White.

    Even though Cathriona White had dated Jim Carrey, she was still legally married to a man in Ireland.

    “She had a husband, we have a husband as next of kin,” an official from the Medical Examiner’s office said. “We’re not releasing any more information on next of kin, but we do have her as married.”

    White’s stepmother and sister flew to California to arrange for her body to be returned to Ireland.

    Condolences have no doubt been sent from both countries to Jim Carrey and to Cathriona White’s family on her untimely passing.

  • Jim Carrey: Late Girlfriend Cathriona White Will Be Laid to Rest Saturday

    Jim Carrey and Cathriona White dated off and on for about three years prior to her alleged suicide on September 28th. White will be laid to rest following a funeral on Saturday in the village of Cappawhite in Tipperary, Ireland.

    Cathriona White’s body was released on Monday. Her stepmother and sister flew to L.A. to arrange for her body to be flown home to Ireland.

    Jim Carrey is reportedly focused on helping the family in any way he can.

    “Jim is doing everything he can to help,” a source says in an interview with People magazine. “He is devastated, but can’t imagine how her family must feel.”

    The family harbors no ill feelings toward Jim Carrey. They are searching for answers as to why White took her life. They will lay Cathriona to rest in the local cemetery by her late father.

    “They are all just shocked,” the source adds. “No one [from her family] is putting any blame on Jim.”

    Jim Carrey issued a statement on the day after Cathriona White’s body was discovered, saying he was “deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona.”

    “She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her,” he added.

    White was involved with the Church of Scientology, something Jim Carrey made fun of throughout their time together. People within the organization had expressed concern over White dating the actor–likely because he didn’t follow the ways of Scientology.

    It’s uncertain if Jim Carrey plans to travel to Ireland to attend Cathriona White’s funeral.

    Suicide is probably the most difficult type of death to understand. Survivors often wonder what they could have done to have prevented the devastating actions.

    Cathriona White’s family is still awaiting a toxicology report that will likely confirm that her death was a suicide.

    Hopefully Jim Carrey and all who loved her will seek help in moving on past this terrible tragedy.
